I started the Lama Dog Tap Room because I developed a love for craft beer while working as an assistant winemaker in SB county. Although I still love wine, the craft beer scene really excited me and I saw a glaring unfilled niche in the SB beer scene for a bottle shop/tap room. Although we are becoming a brewery-rich area, the bottle shop/tap room aspect was lacking. We also have quite a bit of small-lot wine for sale including my own label.
